Relax, this is pure comedy.  I love the "Gay" themed one especially, with the paramedic that "prayed away the gay."  They didn't mention the dude's sexually frustrated wife that can't figure out why she dropped $1000+ at Victoria's Secret to no effect.

I have to say I found the site sickening.

But I voted No, because I think that the site actually works against its original idea. The more sickening and unbelievable the message is, the more people are going to see what the site is truly about. I.e. bigotry.
I say let them propaganda away!

True. The site is so ridiculous that it isn't likely to fool/appeal/change the opinion of anyone. More sites like this please!

After my initial laughter at the comics, I find they don't stray far enough from the 'straight n' narrow' plots to hold my interest for very long. I don't even have to read them to know what their end result will be (usually prostrating one's sinful self before the angered Lord) , and they exist only to provide situational links to relevant scripture.

2/5 for bland character development, though it's about time Christians got back into action lines.

I enjoyed the rock music one.
hehehe Yes, some religious folks seem to enjoy making up rules that are not in the Bible. Imo . . . rock music FTW!  I'm a Metallica fan (how can you argue with Master of Puppets and the Black album) and listen to a lot of Christian rock bands (Switchfoot, P.O.D., Chevelle, etc etc).  Red's new album End of Silence is awesome btw.
Abstinence really confuses me. Why don't we ship them (abstinence-obsessed) off to an uninhabited island and watch themselves go crazy working out how to reproduce.

"..the absolute truth regarding moral issues.."

Well it's nice to know that all moral issues have been officially solved now and can be presented in the form of a comic.....

I quite liked this one.

Lowing posted it as a source for something and it made me laugh, so I bookmarked it for later reading. The FAQ section is very amusing.

It's not as good though, I have to admit.

The bit where the guy running the site talks about how he plans to keep the site running during the rapture made me laugh.

I didn't post the site as a source, I posted an article written in a swedish newspaper that appeared on this site as a source, but of course, you are not supposed to know that.
